Character Discussion Why Impel Down was the most important arc for Luffy

#1
This is not just for luffy, its also for coby who might fight boa hancock after the abolishment of the 7 warlords, to momonoske too so lets go.

this is what i think why the impel down was the very important arc that unlocked luffy’s haki and where he push his body to the limits.

heres some reason
1. Remember back when he fought the zoan guards? Luffy cant even scratch them but after they reach the 6th level and about to escape luffy had a chance to fight them again and it took only 1 blow to defeat them this showed that after the struggle that he been through his body got stronger and also his haki without even knowing it.

2. he unlock his kings haki to save bon clay. Just like i said if impel down didnt happen rayleigh might not be able to train luffy’s kings haki if impel down didnt made luffy unlock this power.

3. Luffy push his body to the limits. Remember his struggle during magellan poison? His body was so pushed to the limit that when he recovered to it luffy thought that ivankov made him stronger. Even back then luffy knew that he became stronger its not because of ivankov but its because he pushed his body to the limits.

so dont underestimate the underated characters because theres a chance they could beat them if coby fought boa hancock he will do the same thing as luffy push his body to the limits that if they fight theres a chance that coby might unlock his kings haki and he can starts to chase luffy.

No, it was MF where he realized how weak he was and thanks to that he made the decision of building up some strength before going to NW.
I guess you didnt get it, yes Marineford did a lot to help him get stronger but he didnt actually push his body to the limits there because everyone was helping him, but on impel down arc he did apmost everything by himself, thats also the first time he realize that he wasnt strong enough but he had to go there so he dont regret things about ace. In impel down he preety much open all his haki over even blackbeard saw it how much he became stronger in which the first time he went there he wasnt that strong
